Employers don't offer health insurance, and day laborers don't have access to sick pay. There's pressure to show up to work, even if an individual is overcome by symptoms of COVID-19, like Ramos experienced. And like many day laborers at this parking lot, Ramos was undocumented.

Employers often discriminate against her and other family members because of their previous COVID-19 diagnosis, Lourdes said. My cousin and I were able to find a housecleaning job, but when the employer found out that we had COVID, the employer acted as though they’re afraid of us, she said. We are desperate because there is no work and no government assistance.
